Awesome GCSE resource alert! We've done some database magic🪄to get the distribution of exam questions in each spec (AQA, Edexcel, OCR, Eduqas) by granular skill. For Edexcel this covers the last 24 years of papers! Check it out: https://t.co/xBC2sbSBft

@DeeVijayan @Just_Maths @themathsbazaar @wright_maths We always do 1sf, for weaker groups we look at rounding to numbers that make the calculation easier and tend to test it with division so they are working with numbers that can be divided

@DeeVijayan @mrsknoxmaths @wright_maths @Just_Maths @mathsjem I do this to see if it is worth the remark. Students usually pay for the remark themselves so it helps if I can recommend one paper to send off rather than paying for both. I don't fully mark, I check where I think there may be errors. There have only ever been a couple of papers

@Friendly_Maths @DeeVijayan @WhiteRoseMaths @mrsknoxmaths @MrMorleyMaths @wright_maths I agree. I made the change after 6 months of being at the school where it had been used for a number of years. Sadly, it was mainly used because it was easy to make things sound good for the department rather than its impact on students and staff

[Mrs Number Nerd @MrsNumberNerd]

@DeeVijayan @WhiteRoseMaths @mrsknoxmaths @MrMorleyMaths @wright_maths I've looked at a few mastery curriculum overviews and created my own which works for the team, our school and our exam board. It's been put together with influence from everyone. Now we are moving to bring together resources for a more common approach. Being tackled in stages

[Mrs Number Nerd @MrsNumberNerd]

@DeeVijayan @WhiteRoseMaths @mrsknoxmaths @MrMorleyMaths @wright_maths The timings didn't fit with our school sadly (4x50min lessons) and team weren't confident to adapt lesson resources for what we needed to fit in the our time frame. We also currently use WJEC exam board so content varies a little.

@DeeVijayan @WhiteRoseMaths @mrsknoxmaths @MrMorleyMaths @wright_maths We no longer follow whiterose, but you just set the questions you want students to practice.

[Mrs Number Nerd @MrsNumberNerd]

@DeeVijayan @WhiteRoseMaths @mrsknoxmaths @MrMorleyMaths @wright_maths I use MathsWatch at my school. I would prefer Sparx having used that too, but not sure I will get the budget for it!
We have good feedback from students, can provide codes for topics which helps with revision purposes and students can ask you questions. It's a nice alternative

[DMaths MCCT @DeeVijayan]

How does schools using @WhiteRoseMaths set homework? Any platforms that are particularly good to go with the scheme? Anyone using mathswatch?@mrsknoxmaths @MrMorleyMaths @wright_maths @MrsNumberNerd pls comment and share

[Mrs Number Nerd @MrsNumberNerd]

@RJS2212 @wright_maths This is exactly how I do it. After Vlookup for get the grades along with if statements to check the tier first.
